G'day Paul

Which side is it? There's left hand thread on the left side on some axles

I'm trying to remove an axle nut so as to replace the seals and bearings.



I have a 2 3/8" socket and try as I might, I can't get the nut to turn.  In
fact, I've damaged the but a little trying and I'm worried about rounding
the nut and being really screwed.



I don't understand why it would be so tight or difficult to take off.



Any ideas





Paul
